Unless you are set on keeping your headlight wipers I would also get the wiper delete trim panels at the same time for a cleaner look.
US lights
Euro lights with holes for wipers.
Euro lights with correct wiper delete panels.

Gartorblue...that wagon could be a carbon copy of mine! Although I wished I had THOSE fancy rims ;-) Man, those rims are to drool for. Must cost an arm and leg eh!
OK update time: The dealer finally got back to me on the wiper-delete panels as well as the 6-pin sockets. Looks like a no-go from the dealer, cos the parts guy needs a VIN number from a vehicle that had one. Where am I going to find a VIN number like that in North America...It's a bloody Euro thing. I think they're worried about part fitment and that its not a modification Mercedes recommends.
Ideas anyone?
